East Brunswick

East BrunswickEast BrunswickEast BrunswickEast BrunswickEast Brunswick
A few photos taken while walking about one afternoon in March. I can't believe I've moved out of the Harvest workroom. My month-long residency just went by so quickly! I had so much fun and it definitely helped me to cope a little with the loss of my dear friend. I still miss and think of him every single day. Sometimes during the day, I imagine he's just 2 blocks down the road, just a call away. But I know he isn't. That makes me a little sad. There's just so much I want to tell him about. Things that have happened, the stuff I've been doing, I even want to show him my new haircut! But he's not there anymore. But these things do take time I suppose. Anyway, I'm keeping my fingers crossed. If all goes well, I might end up having a studio space again in June at Harvest. It is just way too much fun there, Lara, Emma and Jess are all so nice to me and I've come to love the little neighbourhood so much. There's the organic grocer, Each Peach, the friendly sustainable bee farming guy, the foodworks lady who always talks about music and the weather and oh the private homes too. They are so cute. I'll show you pictures the next time I get around to uploading them.

Hi everyone! I know I said the online shop will only be open on Monday, but Emma and myself, we ended up working hard the whole of yesterday and today, putting everything together. Darren helped with all the photos. If I might add, he did such an amazing job. He made my legs look so much slimmer! And so the shop is now online and open! Hooray! Have a fun time shopping!

In all honesty, I am so tired and haven't really had any time to sit still and just rest! Last night was a late night for me and this morning, I had an early morning kids class. I have been walking around town since then and came home, cooked up a storm for dinner, cleaned out the entire kitchen, did the laundry. Ah. I am so bushed! Anyway, thank you SO super much for all the support so far. The emails, comments, tweets have all been coming in during the day and it's just been so encouraging. A few of you are super excited and have asked if the online shop will be ready soon. Well, thing is, we are all so tired and still working on it. Oops! We kind of want to take more photos so you can all view the products and be at ease knowing what you're buying. So hang in there! You can however, check it out still. It is online, just that all our products are all listed as 'coming soon'. Indeed, coming soon they sure are. I promise it will be early next week! Probably Tuesday morning to be on the safe side, maybe even Monday evening! I will keep you all updated. Till then, do enjoy more pictures over on the Harvest blog!

Success!

With the Harvest Ladies
So turns out I totally didn't have any extra time at all to do a post just before opening. It was just crazy and we worked till the very last minute! Oops. Haha. But yes, the opening was a huge success with a great turn out! There were so many people and I ended up with a really sore throat after. Must be all the 'shouting'. Anyway, the shop will be open 10am to 5pm tomorrow and on Sunday. I will be tending the shop on Sunday. So see you then if you are coming! If not, there's always the online shop, which we will be launching in a bit!
